It’s been a minute since we’ve written about shows at Flatcolor Gallery, but that doesnt mean they’ve been slacking on fine arts curation. In fact, they’re doing a great job.

RMN has a collection of photography by Hervé Lewandowski entitled Album de photographies spirites : spectre et voiles.

Dan Sartain creates lo-fi rockabilly and sings about things like voodoo. He’s from Birmingham, Alabama, and he absolutely hates the place (in part due to the religious right coordinating an event during which The Beatles records were burned and run over by steamrollers).
